First-Ever Oilfield Water Business And Finance Conference Opens For Registration

May 15, 2019 – Oilfield Water Connection announces that registration is open for the first-ever conference entirely focused on the rapid evolution of the oilfield water business model.

On June 21, 2019, in downtown Houston, attendees will have a chance to participate in an executive discussion on the business, market structure and finance aspects of oilfield water management.

For more information and to register for the conference please visit www.oilfieldwater.com.

“For the first time in history, the biggest business uncertainties facing the U.S. oil industry relate to a liquid other than crude,” said Oilfield Water Connection co-founder Joseph Triepke. “Oilfield water management is a structural problem which requires a business model revolution to solve. I’m excited about gathering the industry’s smartest business leaders to advance the discussion.”

Oilfield Water Connection co-founder Pete Cook said: “Industry leaders have reacted enthusiastically to how the event examines the procurement, financial and business model options in midstream water today. While there are several high-quality events focused on emerging oilfield water technology, industry leaders are excited to finally have one focused on the business side of the industry.”

Appearing on stage will be about 20 oilfield water thought leaders in panels and presentations. Topics on the agenda include:

Capital Markets Update
2020 Vision: Economic Outlook for Permian Water in the Next Decade
Midstream or Services? Valuing and Optimizing Oilfield Water Solutions
Private Equity, Transaction, and Valuation Considerations in the Water Pipeline
Produced Water Trading – Commoditization Is in the Air (and the Water) …
